Description: TONERS FOR POLYESTERS This invention belongs to the field of organic chemistry. In particular, this invention relates to certain substituted 1,4—bis(2,6-dialkylanilino) anthra¬ quinones in combination with certain red anthraquinone and anthrapyridone (3H— ibenzff,ij] isoguinoline—2,7— dione) compounds which are useful as a toner system in polyesters. Unfortunately, native polyester fibers and plastics as manufactured generally have an undesirable yellow appearance. At present, in order to improve the apparent whiteness of polyester fibers or neutral color characteristics of polyester plastics, certain so—called toners are incorporated into the polyester to hide or neutralize the yellow color. Cobalt acetate is one of the most widely used toners in the industry to mask the yellow color of polymers. However, cobalt acetate has a number of noteworthy disadvantages. For example, cobalt acetate toned materials tend to be unstable during storage and are particularly susceptible to temperature and humidity, and tends to undergo an undesirable color shift toward yellow. Further, when high cobalt concentrations are needed to mask the yellow color of some polymers there is a tendency to impart a gray color to the polymer. Another disadvantage in the use of cobalt acetate is the limitation set by various governmental agencies in the level of cobalt deemed allowable in polyester catalyst systems. Further, cobalt salts tend to lower the resulting polymer's thermal stability and increases acetaldehyde formation in poly(ethylene terephthalate) . Lastly, cobalt has a strong tendency to form insoluble residues in manufacturing process equipment, thereby leading to production problems. U.S. Patent No. 4,745,174, discloses certain 1—cyano—3H—dibenz[f,ij] isoquinoline—2,7—diones which are useful as organic toners for polyester fibers and plastics and which solve many of the aforementioned problems. These compounds, however, are expensive to manufacture and provide environmental, safety, and provide toxicological concerns relative to their manufacture and use. Suitable toners for polyester must be non— extractable from the polymer to provide the greatest degree of safety. Also, they must be stable to sunlight and to a wide range of conditions of temperature and humidity. Further, they must not sublime or change hue as a result of the extremely high temperatures encountered during the polyester manufacture. In addition, the toner must have no adverse effects on the physical properties of the polyester polymer. U.S. Patent No. 3,488,195 and 3,849,139 disclose the use of certain 1,4—bis—(arylamino)anthraquinones including 1,4-bis(2,6—dialkylanilino) anthraquinones for blue tinting photographic X-ray film to aid in the examination of the X—ray patterns obtained therein for obtaining accurate diagnosis of complex radiographs. No mention that these blue compounds would be particularly efficacious in combination with certain red colorants as toners to overcome the inherent yellow characteristics of polyesters is made, however, in either patent. U.S. Patent No. 2,731,476 teaches the use of certain blue 1,4—bis(2,6-dialkylanilino) anthraquinone sulfona ide derivatives as dyestuffs and pigments for coloring lacquers and plastic masses. Finally, U. S. Patent Nos. 4,359,570; 4,403,092; 4,420,581; 4,790,581; 4,740,581; and 4,999,418 disclose colored polyester compositions containing varying levels of the blue and red colorants useful in the practice of this invention copolymerized therein; however, no mention is made in these patents regarding the potential utility of the disclosed compounds as components to produce an efficacious toner system for polyesters. This invention provides certain blue substituted l,4-bis(2,6-dialkylanilino) anthraquinones in combina¬ tion with selected red anthraquinone and anthrapyridone (3H—dibenzffi,j] isoquinoline—2,7— ione) compounds which provide a toner system useful in imparting a desirable neutral to slightly blue hue to polyesters having a yellow appearance. The thermally stable colored compounds have reactive groups and can be incorporated into the polyester polymer structure during polymeriza¬ tion. This invention provides an economical, safe, and environmentally compatible toner system for use in polyester fibers and plastics. The toners have adequate color characteristics (hue) and are stable to heat, light, humidity and a variety of environmental factors and overcome many of the problems encountered with the known toner systems mentioned above. The toners of this invention have been shown to be stable to UV light, elevated temperatures, glycolysis and hydrolysis. Further, the ratio of red and blue components may be varied as needed in obtaining the color characteristics which are needed in the toner systems to provide effective toner properties for different polyesters having a variable amount of yellow color which also may vary in hue.

The polyesters referred to herein include linear, thermoplastic, crystalline or amorphous polyesters produced by conventional polymerization techniques from one or more diols and one or more dicarboxylic acids. The polyesters normally are molding or fiber grade and have an inherent viscosity (I.V.) of about 0.4 to about 1.2 (dL/g) measured at 25 β C in a 60/40 ratio by weight of phenol/tetrachloroethane. Suitable diol components of the described poly¬ esters may be selected from ethylene glycol, 1,4— cyclohexanedimethanol, 1,2—propanediol, 1,3—propanediol, 1,4-butanediol, 2,2-dimethy1-1,3—propanediol, 1,6— hexanediol, 1,2—cyclohexanediol, 1,4—cyclohexanediol, 1,2—cyclohexanedimethanol, 1,3—cyclohexanedimethanol, Z,8—bis(hydroxymethy1)—tricycle—[5.2.1.0]-decane wherein Z represents 3, 4, or 5; and diols containing one or more oxygen atoms in the chain, e.g., diethylene glycol, triethylene glycol, dipropylene glycol, tripropylene glycol and the like. In general, these diols contain 2 to 18, preferably 2 to 8 carbon atoms. Cycloaliphatic diols can be employed in their cis or trans configura¬ tion or as mixtures of both forms. Suitable acid components (aliphatic, alicyclic, or aromatic dicarboxylic acids) of the linear polyester are selected, for example, from terephthalic acid, isophthalic acid, 1,4—cyclohexanedicarboxylic acid, 1,3- cyclohexanedicarboxylic acid, succinic acid, glutaric acid, adipic acid, sebacic acid, 1,12-dodecanedioic acid, 2,6—naphthalenedicarboxylic acid and the like. In the polymer preparation, it is often preferable to use a functional acid derivative thereof such as the dimethyl, diethyl, or dipropyl ester of the dicarboxylic acid. The anhydrides or acid halides of these acids also may be employed where practical. Preferred polyesters comprise at least about 50 mole percent terephthalic acid residues and at least about 50 mole percent ethylene glycol and/or 1,4— cyclohexanedimethanol residues and about 2 to about 8 mole percent of residues of a compound of formula (1) . Particularly preferred polyesters are those containing from about 75 to 100 mole percent terephthalic acid residues and from about 75 to 100 mole percent ethylene glycol residues. The linear polyesters may be prepared according to polyester forming conditions well known in the art. For example, a mixture of one or more dicarboxylic acids, preferably aromatic dicarboxylic acids, or ester forming derivatives thereof, and one or more diols may be heated in the presence of esterification and/or polyesterifica— tion catalysts at temperatures in the range of about 150° to about 300°C, and pressures of atmospheric to about 0.2 mm Hg. Normally, the dicarboxylic acid or derivative thereof is esterified or transesterified with the diol(s) at atmospheric pressure and at a temperature at the lower end of the specified range. Polycondensa— tion then is effected by increasing the temperature and lowering the pressure while excess diol is removed from the mixture. Typical catalyst or catalyst systems for polyester condensation are well—known in the art. For example, catalysts disclosed in U.S. Patent Nos. 4,025,492; 4,136,089; 4,176,224; 4,238,593; and 4,208,527, incorporated herein by reference, are deemed suitable in this regard. Further, R. E. ilfong, Journal of Polymer Science. 54 385 (1961) sets forth typical catalysts which are useful in polyester condensation reactions. A preferred temperature range for a polyester condensation is about 260 β C to about 300°C. The following detailed procedures will illustrate further the preparation of the toner components and the tabular examples of Tables 1—10 provide a further description of the blue and red compounds which are useful in the practice of the invention. Experimental Section The chlorosulfonyl compound of Example 1 and other examples can also be prepared by the process described in copending U.S. Application Serial No. 08/210,785, filed March 18, 1994. In this process, the reaction mixture is drowned in a C 3 —C 6 aliphatic ketone, or a mixture of C 3 —C 6 aliphatic ketones, with stirring and cooling to precipitate the solid arylsulfonyl halide thus produced. Acetone is the preferred C 3 —C 6 aliphatic ketone. Alternatively, isopropanol or a mixture of isopropanol/acetone, preferably about 80/20 by volume can be used. In this process, less heat of reaction is observed, thus making the drowning of the halosulfona— tion reaction mixture safer and more controllable. Further, less hydrogen chloride gas is evolved from the drowning mixture and generally more highly pure arylsulfonyl chlorides are produced. Example 1 To chlorosulfonic acid (250 mL) was added portion- wise with stirring 1,4—bis—(2—ethyl— 6— ethy1anilino) anthraquinone (50.0 g, 0.11 m) at such a rate that the temperature rose from 25°C to about 45°C. The resulting solution was stirred without heating for 2.0 hours and then added in a fine stream to ice—water mixture (3.0 L) at 0 — 5°C with good stirring. The di—sulfonyl chloride product was collected by filtration, washed with water, pressed to remove most of the water and then added to tetrahydrofuran (1.0 L) and stirred to solution. Ethanolamine (30.0 g, 0.5 mole) was dissolved in tetra¬ hydrofuran (50.0 mL) and the solution added dropwise to the solution of the di—sulfonyl chloride with stirring. After being stirred at room temperature for about 12.0 hours, the tetrahydrofuran was removed under about 100 inches of pressure. The residue was then dissolved in acetic acid (500 mL) and the solution drowned slowly into water (3.5 L) with stirring. The blue product was collected by filtration, washed with hot water and dried (yield 77.5 g, 97.7% of the theoretical yield). Mass spectrometry supported the following structure: Absorption maxima were observed at 578 nm (e — 15,694) and 621 nm (e — 16,817) in the visible absorption spectrum in N,N—dimethylformamide solvent. Example 2 An anthraquinone di—sulfonyl chloride produced by chlorosulfonation of 1,4—bis(2—ethyl—6-methylanilino)— anthraquinone (0.051 m) exactly as described in Example 1, was added to a slurry of 4—carbomethoxybenzyl amine-HCl (22.3 g, 0.111 m) in methylene chloride (250 mL) to which triethyl a ine (26.3 g, 0.260 m) had been added. After the reaction mixture had been stirred at room temperature, activated charcoal (5.0 g) and magnesium sulfate (5.0 g) were added and the mixture then filtered to remove the solids. The solvent was removed from the filtrate under vacuum and the residue slurried in about 500 mL of water. Essentially a quantitative yield of product was obtained which had the following structure as evidenced by mass spectrometry. Absorption maxima at 597 nm (e — 11,971) and 622 nm (e — 15,126) in the visible absorption spectrum in methylene chloride. Example 3 An anthraquinone di—sulfonyl chloride, produced by chlorosulfonation of l,4-bis(2—ethyl—6-methylanilino)— anthraquinone (0.037 m) exactly as described in Example 1 was reacted with ethyl glycinate .HCl (10.78 g, 0.077 m) exactly as described in Example 2 to produce 29.5 g (99.0% of the theoretical yield) of the following blue product: Absorption maxima at 577 nm (e— 14,713) and 621 nm (€ — 15,517) were observed in the visible absorption spectrum in methylene chloride. Example 4 To o—dichlorobenzene (100 mL) was added 1,4—bis— (2—ethyl—6- ethy1anilino)anthraquinone (9.48 g, 0.02 ) with stirring. After solution appeared to be complete, bromine (7.04 g, 0.044 m) , dissolved in o-dichloro— benzene (20 mL) , was added dropwise at 25 — 30°C (very slight exotherm) . After addition was complete, the reaction mixture was heated at 25 — 30° for 1.0 hour, allowed to cool to room temperature and then drowned into methanol (500 mL) . The product crystallized and was collected by filtration, washed with methanol and dried in air. The yield was 9.44 g (74.7% of the theoretical yield) of the following dibrominated material as confirmed by mass spectrometry: Absorption maxima at 582 nm (e — 16,953) and 625 nm (6 — 16,953) were observed in the visible absorption spectrum in methylene chloride. Example 5 To chlorosulfonic acid (35.0 mL) was added portion- wise, at less than 35°C, 1,4— is—(4—bromo—2— ethyl—6— methylanilino) anthraquinone (6.32 g, 0.01 m) (from Example 4) with good stirring. Chlorosulfonation was completed by heating and stirring the reaction solution at about 90 — 95°C for 1.0 hour, which was then drowned gradually into about 500 L of ice/water mixture with stirring. The blue di—sulfonyl chloride was collected by filtration and pressed fairly dry. The wet-press cake was then added to ethanola ine (50.0 mL) and the reaction mixture stirred at 90—95°C for 0.5 hour and then drowned into water (300 mL) . After being acidified to pH of less than 4, the mixture was filtered and the solid washed with water and dried in air. Thin—layer chromatography showed, in addition to the desired product, some highly polar material presumed to be the mono or di—sulfonic acid, or mixture thereof. Purifica— tion was accomplished by dissolving a portion (1.0 g) of the crude product in methylene chloride (40 mL) followed by chromatography through Mg0 3 Si (FLORISIL) in a coarse glass—fritted funnel using methylene chloride to remove a small amount of blue material which had a high R f value (appeared to be starting material) . The product was then eluted using tetrahydrofuran. The solvent was then removed from the eluate to leave an oily residue which was dissolved in acetic acid (10 mL) and the solution was then drowned into water. The blue product was collected by filtration, washed with water and dried in air (yield 0.6 g) . Mass spectrometry and thin-layer chromatography showed the product to be mostly the desired product: A small amount of the mono sulfonamide derivative was also present. Absorption maxima were observed at 576 nm (€ - 16,519) and 619 nm (e - 17,222) in the visible absorption spectrum in methylene chloride. Example 6 To a solution of 1,4—bis(2—ethyl—6— ethylanilino) anthraquinone (3.0 g, 0.00632 m) and p—toluene sulfonic acid (0.05 g) in N,N—dimethylforinamide (10 mL) was added dropwise with stirring trifluoroacetic anhydride (10 mL) allowing the temperature to rise. The reaction mixture was heated at about 50°C for 15 minutes, during which time the color shifted hypsochromically from blue to red indicating that acylation had occurred. The reaction mixture was drowned into water (250 mL) and the red product was collected by filtration, washed with water and dried in air (yield - 3.50 g, 97.2% of the theoretical yield) . Mass εpectrometry supported the following mono acylated product: An absorption maximum was observed at 522 nm (£ — 7,079) in the visible absorption spectrum in methylene chloride. Example 7 A portion (1.5 g, 0.00263 m) of the product of Example 6 was added portionwise to chlorosulfonic acid (15 mL) at room temperature. After being stirred at room temperature for about 30 minutes, the reaction mixture drowned onto an ice/water mixture with stirring. The yellow—red product was collected by filtration, washed with water, pressed to remove most of the water and then added to ethanolamine (20 mL) . After being heated at about 90-95°C with stirring for 1.0 hour to form the sulfonamide product, removal of the trifluoro— acetyl groups by hydrolysis was accomplished by treating the reaction mixture with 2—ethoxyethanol (15.0 mL) , water (5.0 mL) and 0.5 mL of 50% NaOH solution and heating and stirring for about 0.5 hour. The color of the reaction mixture charged from red to blue during this time.

Mass spectro etry indicated the desired mono—sulfonamide product was obtained having the following structure: Absorption maxima were observed at 582 nm (€-14,706) and 627 nm (€ - 15,902) in the visible absorption spectrum in methylene chloride. Example 8 The anthraquinone di—sulfonyl chloride produced by chlorosulfonation of 1,4—bis(2—ethyl—6-methylanilino) anthraquinone (0.01 m) was added portionwise to a solution of 2-methylaminoethanol (1.80 g, 0.024 m) in methylene chloride (70.0 mL) containing triethyl amine (2.53 g, 0.025 m) allowing the temperature to rise spontaneously to about 27°C. Thin-layer chromatography showed complete reaction after the reaction mixture had been stirred at room temperature for about 30 minutes. The organic reaction mixture was extracted twice with 250 mL water and the aqueous layer removed.

Examples 22 — 322 in Tables I — X illustrate further the scope of the invention as regards useful structures of the toner components. Examples 323- 343 illustrate the preparation of modified poly(ethylene terephthalate) polyester polymers which contain representative amounts of suitable blue and red components copolymerized therein. Color measurement on each polymer was made using a HUNTER LAB ULTRASCAN SPECTROCOLORIMETER (Hunter Associates Laboratory, Inc.) and the Hunter Rd, a, b values determined. The chromaticity dimensions (a and b) give designation of color as follows: a measures redness when plus and greenness when minus. fe measures yellowness when plus and blueness when minus. Example 323 (Preparation of Polyester Polymer) The following materials were placed in a 500 mL, single—neck, round—bottom flask: 97 g (0.5 moles) Dimethyl terephthalate 42.8 g (0.69 moles) Ethylene glycol 22.3 g (0.16 moles) 1,4—Cyclohexanedimethanol 0.00609 g Ti from a n—butanol solution of acetyl—triisopropyl titanate 0.0050 g Mn from an ethylene glycol solution of manganese acetate 0.0003261 g (3.0 ppm) Blue Compound of Example 1 (from an ethylene glycol solution) 0.000168 g (1.68 ppm) Red Compound of Example 10 (from an ethylene glycol solution) The flask was equipped with a nitrogen inlet, stirrer, vacuum outlet, and condensing flask. The flask and contents were heated at 200 β C in a Belmont metal bath for 80 minutes with a nitrogen sweep and with stirring (stirrer speed was ramped to 25 rpm over first 15 minutes, was ramped from 25 to 200 rpm over 5 minutes, and was held at 200 rpm until final poly- condensation stage) . The temperature of the bath was increased to 225°C over a 5 minute period. The flasks and contents were heated at 225°C for 60 minutes. Then 1.05 mL of an ethylene glycol/h-butanol solution of a mixed phosphorus ester composition (Merpol A) which contained 0.0087 g phosphorus was added. The tempera¬ ture of the bath was increased to 282°C over a 20 minute time period. The vacuum was applied over a 5 minute period until the pressure was reduced to 400 mm Hg. The pressure was reduced over a 5 minute time from 400 mm Hg to 100 mm Hg. The pressure was further reduced over a 5 minute time from 100 mm Hg to 10 mm Hg. The pressure was reduced over a 5 minute time from 10 mm Hg to 0.2 mm Hg. The flask and contents were heated at 282°C under a pressure of 0.2 mm Hg for 45 additional minutes with the stirrer speed ranging from 200 rpm at the start of the time period to 25 rpm at the finish. The flask was removed from the metal bath and the polymer was allowed to cool in nitrogen atmosphere. The resulting polymer had an inherent viscosity of 0.76 as measured in a 60/40 ratio by weight of phenol/tetrachloroethane at a concentration of 0.5 g per 100 mL. The polymer was cooled in liquid nitrogen (~ —195°C) and then broken into pieces, which were ground using a Wiley mill to pass through a 3mm screen. Approximately 8.0 grams of the granules were molded into a chip approx. 1.5 inches in diameter and 125 mils thick in a Wabash hydraulic press (Wabash Metal Products, Wabash, IN) at ~245°C at 20,000 lbs force for 1.0 minute. The color values were determined as described above on the chip and are reported in Table 11. Comparative Example 1 Example 323 was repeated except that the blue and red toner components were omitted thus providing a "control" sample for comparison. The color values are reported in Table 11 and indicate that the sample is very yellow. Examples 324-343 The procedure of Example 323 was repeated exactly except the blue and red toner components were varied as shown in Table 11. The color values were determined as described above and reported in Table 11. The effectiveness of the toner system in eliminating the yellow color of the polymer is shown by observing that many of the systems show a "b" value near zero and all show a "b" value less than that of the polymer of Comparative Example 1 without any toner present. The following examples (Examples 344—346) show the preparation of poly(ethylene terephthalate) containing various amounts of blue and red toner components. All color measurements were made on a Hunter Lab color measurement device (Hunter Associates Laboratory) and the CIELAB—L*, a* and b* value measured. Again, a* measures redness when plus and greenness when minus; and b* measures yellowness when plus and blueness when minus. Example 344 Poly(ethylene terephthalate) Preparation The following materials were place in a 500 mL, three—necke , round— ottom flask: 97 g (0.5 moles) Dimethyl terephthalate 62 g (1.0 moles) Ethylene glycol 0.00192 g Ti from a n—butanol solution of acetyl—triisopropyl titanate 0.0053 g Mn from an ethylene glycol solution of manganese acetate 0.0345 g Antimony trioxide 3.3 ppm Blue Compound of Example l (from an ethylene glycol solution) 1.86 ppm Red Compound of Example 10 (from an ethylene glycol solution) The flask was equipped with a nitrogen inlet, stirrer, vacuum outlet, and condensing flask. The flask and contents were heated at 200 β C in a Belmont metal bath for 60 minutes with a nitrogen sweep and with stirring (stirrer speed was ramped to 165 rpm during first 15 minutes and then the stirrer speed was held at 165 rpm throughout the remainder of the run) . The temperature of the bath was increased to 210°C over a 10 minute time period. The flask and contents were heated at 210°C for 65 minutes. The 1.57 mL of an ethylene glycol/h-butanol solution of a mixed phosphorus ester composition (Merpol A) which contained 0.012 g phosphorus was added. The temperature of the bath was increased to 230°C over a 10 minute time period. Then vacuum was applied over a 5 minute period until the pressure had been reduced to 200 mm Hg. The flask and contents were heated at 230°C under a pressure of 200 mm Hg for 25 minutes. The metal bath temperature was increased to 270°C over a 15 minute time period. The pressure was reduced to 100 mm Hg over a 10 minute period. The flask and contents were heated at 270°C under a pressure of 100 mm Hg for 30 minutes. The temperature of the bath was increased to 285°C and the pressure was reduced to 6 mm Hg over a 10 minute time period. The flask and contents were heated at 285°C under a pressure of 6 mm Hg for 25 minutes. The pressure was reduced to 0.3 mm Hg over a 3 minute time period and the polycondensation was continued for 37 minutes. The flask was removed from the metal bath and was allowed to cool in a nitrogen atmosphere while the polymer crystallized. The resulting polymer had an inherent viscosity of 0.65 as measured in a 60/40 ratio by weight of phenol tetrachloroethane at a concentration of 0.5 g per 100 mL. No loss of colorant by vaporiza- tion was observed in the distillate collected during polycondensation. The polymer was ground in a Wiley mill, passed through a 3 mm screen, and the color determined on the granules as indicated above. The properties are reported in Table 12. Example 345 A sample of poly(ethylene terephthalate) was prepared exactly as described in Example 344 except that 4.0 ppm of the blue compound of Example 8 and 2.0 ppm of the red compound of Example 11 were used as the toner system. The properties are reported in Table 12. Example 346 A sample of poly(ethylene terephthalate) was prepared exactly as described in Example 344 except that 4.5 ppm of the blue compound of Example 9 and 2.0 ppm of the red compound of Example 168 of Table 5 were used as the toner system. The properties are reported in Table 12. TABLE 1 BLUE ANTHRAQUINONE COMPOUNDS OF STRUCTURE I Ex. m n α_. C 2 H 5 CH.
